Chapter 279 Fire Burns the city

"Well, I took the last of my people and went to each tribe and kingdom to make announcements. Those who could escape followed me." The more he spoke, the more sorrowful he became. "We are loyal to you, chief."

"Okay, I see what's going on." I arranged: "You arrange everyone to carry things to the island, I will arrange someone to meet you. Only there aren't so many houses on the island now, you..." I pointed to the camp the Allies had left by the sea. "You'll have to make do here for a while. I'll make arrangements for you later."

"Thank you, chief." He bowed repeatedly.

After summoning John and Zombo to help the refugees carry things, I hurried back to the tribe. Let Wu Wa and Li Wanxue quickly took people to the seaside to do demographic statistics, and to bring them over the material induction.

In the evening, after Li Wanxue and others came back, I went to the allied camp with several people to visit those who had come to join us. An emergency military council was called in the evening.

I asked Cui Bin, "How is the grenade making going?"

Cui Bin replied, "Almost, more than expected. Now there are already 1,500."

"Good. Tonight we are going to make our own preparations." I arranged, "Leave four hundred troops to defend Bukgu Island, and the rest to brass Island. Take all grenades with you. Go with me, Cui Bin. I plan to conquer the kingdom of saltpeter after I recapture the Brass Island."

"Good."

"Fly elder brother, let me also go." Li Ding volunteered.

"Don't go and guard Cuckoo Island." Tiankeng combat experience, let me find his defensive ability or good.

Li Ding nodded her head sadly.

Let wood card to settle supplies, I and Wu Wa and Li Wanxue alone opened a meeting.

Li Wanxue placed the ledger in front of me. "The population is 852, with more women..."

"That could make some marriage for our army." Most of those remaining tribal allied forces are young men, let them serve as soldiers, naturally to help them solve the worries at home. That's how you keep people.

Li Wanxue nodded: "I will arrange it. In terms of supplies, there were ten thousand pounds of corn and ten thousand pounds of sweet potatoes each, which was enough to feed them before they began to plow the land. They also brought with them more than 2,000 animals of all kinds. I'm going to take a step into the tribe, just for breeding. Our population is now approaching 3,000, and there is a huge shortfall in meat. They have all the tools."

I nodded. "Good. Tomorrow we're going to brass Island. When we are gone, divide them into two villages and let them plough as many acres as they can. There is one rule, however, which states that a certain amount of forest area must be reserved and that land cannot be reclaimed piece by piece."

"All right."

"That will be hard work for you two." I stood up and said goodbye to Wu Wa together, and took Li Wanxue's hand back home.

Because this period of time, most of the time is Li Wanxue in accompany me. Back to the room, see Zhang Yutong lying on the bed.

"What are you doing here? I was a little surprised.

Zhang Yutong hee hee smile: "Wan Snow sister let me come over, she said tonight she take children."

Holding her in his arms, Zhang yutong said: "Brother Lu Fei, although Sister Lu Qian is gone, you have not thought of doing anything for her?"

"When the battle is over, we won't even find the bones. When the war is over, we'll build her a little cemetery." This is an idea I have long had, and it is also a good explanation for my children in the future.

"Just remember." Zhang Yutong closed his eyes: "you will go tomorrow, hurry to sleep."

"Don't you?" I put my hand on her hip.

"No." Zhang Yutong shook his head: "take children too tired, what all don't want."

"But I want to." I laid it flat and jumped on it.

Zhang Yutong HMMM one, take the initiative to separate the long legs. She was probably working really hard and fell asleep during the process. I went to bed in a hurry.

When I got up in the morning, after breakfast, I hurried to the small square where they had gathered their troops. Rushed to the port to inspect the stores, and the two large ships set sail at the same time.

In the evening of the next day, they approached the harbor of the new King city. Several boats are preparing to leave. They were trying desperately to get out of here as we went up from left to right. We threw a few smoke bombs out, and they screamed in the smoke. Some even chose to jump overboard and fight their way to the shore.

When the smoke dispersed, nothing much changed. The men in charge of the boat knew they could not afford to disturb us, so they turned back towards the shore.

They all went ashore, and Zombo and John quickly ordered the army and surrounded them.

"It's the leader."

"The leader has come to save us." The crowd began to hum.

"People of the Five Kingdoms, stand aside." "I shouted.

The men of Brass Island, emboldened by the tardy union, went straight to shoving them. I stood before them and made my rounds.

"Are you of the same kingdom?"

"Report, chief, we are." The head of that person cowardly way back.

I picked out five men: "Go back and tell your king to come to Bukgu as soon as possible and surrender, with your kingdom's register and stores. If I don't, I'll call. There will be no mercy."

All five immediately fell on their knees and kowtowed, almost rolling and crawling as they were let go.Lest I suddenly change my mind.

I made a sign to Zombo with a pistol, and he immediately called for the troops to surround the rest of the allied army.

"Chief, we are willing to surrender." A hundred people knelt down.

I turned and walked away. Frightened by the five who were allowed to leave, they fled in a boat.

There must have been two or three hundred men and women, young and old. There was no one of any standing in it. I told each of them to go to the boat and get his things, and then go back to their homes.

"Chief, let us follow you to Cuckoo Island. We don't want to stay here." "Asked an old man grimacing.

"Why go to Bukgu island?" I said. I thought this place was fine. Go back to your homes and no one will disturb your life again."

"There are allied forces on the island, chief, and they are taking men everywhere. They gather here when they do. Then take it away by boat." The old man pointed to the new city. "How dare we go back now?"

I suddenly saw a thick cloud of smoke rising above the new king's city.

"They can't have found us and set the city on fire." Cui Bin urgently shouted. He had built the city himself, and it was all his work.

I gathered my army and marched to the new king's city. The gates were opened, and when you went inside, the whole building of the new royal city was in flames. There were many people standing on the wall watching.

"How can that be?" Cui Bin was completely stunned.

We hadn't lived there a day, and I hadn't even looked at the new royal city after it was built. It was burned down. I feel very sad. Let Zombo and John split up on the walls to catch the men. We need to interrogate them.

We had to exit the city gate because of the heavy smoke. When they returned, the men of the city wall came running down after them. There was no need to seize them. There were thousands of them.

When Jompo came up, he said, "Chief, I understand the situation. While we were at the beach, someone came running back and tipped us off. After the fires were set, they all fled on alpacas, and they moored boats in other parts of the island."

"Did they take the men?" That's my main concern.

Zong Bu shook his head. "What a hurry! After they set fire to the city walls, all the people in the city fled to the mountains. Some of them must have burned in The New King's Town."

"Lu Fei, hurriedly arrange someone to put out the fire." Cui Bin urgently proposed.

I understand how he feels, but the whole of the new royal city is on fire, and there's nothing we can do about it if we put out the fire, and everything's burned, and there's nothing we can do about it.

I soothed: "Cui Bin, don't be too sad. The royal city is gone, so we can rebuild it later."
